Welcome to CRIJ 1301 – Introduction to Criminal Justice with Odessa College. This

course workbook is an integral and required adjunct to your course text. This material has been

compiled through the collaborative efforts of the Criminal Justice Department faculty of Odessa

College. It is compliant with the most current Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board

Academic Course Guide Manual (ACGM) concerning course content and learning outcomes.

We have researched many sources of material and compiled what we believe is the most

comprehensive, accurate and contemporary information available from any source. Our idea is

to unlock ourselves, as instructors and students of Criminal Justice from any single source of

information such that we are free to more fully develop a bank of exceptional material and

coursework that leads the learner unencumbered through the American Criminal Justice system

in a comprehensive manner.

In your time spent in this coursework, we will explore the foundations of modern

criminal justice, look at all of the major players that comprise the modern system of justice, the

workings of each and the interplay between these systems as well as explore contemporary

issues that shape the present and future of American justice.

This course is a foundational program which introduces the student to the inner

workings of the criminal justice system through a comprehensive study of the three major

players: Law Enforcement, the Courts and Corrections. We will also take a look at the sub-

components within the system such as Probation and Parole, non-governmental corrections

services and community resources which intimately interact with the “Big 3”. This course

provides a historical and philosophical overview of the American criminal justice system,

including the nature, extent, and impact of crime; criminal law; and justice agencies and

processes.1 The general overall learning outcomes for this course include the successful

student being able to: Describe the history and philosophy of the American criminal justice

system; Explain the nature and extent of crime in America; Analyze the impact and

consequences of crime; Evaluate the development, concepts, and functions of law in the

criminal justice system, and; Describe the structure of contemporary federal, state, and local

justice agencies and processes.2

Module 2 Assignment: Elements of a Crime

Questions Notes/Key Terms

ELEMENTS OF A CRIME ASSIGNMENT

1. Every codified (written) crime certain features, or elements,

which are specific to it and set it apart from any other

crime.

• Taken together, these features compose the legal

essence of the specific crime, or the legal definition

of it.

• They are referred to in legal terms as the elements

of the crime and describe the most essential and

required aspects of criminal conduct.

○ In other words, they define the specific

behaviors, conditions and intent which must

be present for an act to be considered

criminal.

○ To convict a defendant of a particular crime,

prosecutors must prove to a judge or jury

that each and every one of the statutory

elements are present.

▪ There is no “close enough”, “mostly

there” or “almost” in terms of proper

charging and conviction for a crime.

� It is an all or nothing situation.

○ If even one element of an offense cannot be

established beyond a reasonable doubt, that

particular crime has not been committed,

criminal liability has not been demonstrated,

and the defendant will be found not guilty.

Page 39: CRIJ 1301 Workbook.pd

Questions Notes/Key Terms

2. Words, connected phrases and punctuation is everything in

terms of separating the various elements of a statutory

crime.

For Example:

• Statutes (criminal laws, codified crimes, etc.)

typically begin by defining as the first element the

answer to “who” must be involved to commit the

offense.

○ Statutes typically begin with words such as

“A person”, “Whomever”, “Whoever”, “Any

person”, or similar terms which would be the

first element of the crime.

▪ This terminology indicates that it

must be a human being personally

involved and it cannot be an animal,

accident of causes or result of events

not started in motion by a person.

(We’ll talk about causes or legal

causation another time)

• Following the “who” begins the “what”.

○ The target or intended “victim” of the crime

will be identified.

▪ If the crime is against a person, this

element will usually include words

such as “another”, “person of

another”, “body of another”, etc. as a

person cannot commit a crime

against themselves.

Page 40: CRIJ 1301 Workbook.pd

Questions Notes/Key Terms

� An example, if a person shoots

and kills themselves

intentionally (suicide) it is not

a crime, whereas if they

intentionally shot and killed

the person of another they

are likely criminally

responsible for Murder.

○ For property crimes such as burglaries,

property thefts, embezzlement, etc. the

“victim” element will commonly use words

such as “property”, “property of another” or

it may specifically define the property by

type (i.e. money, motor vehicle, firearm,

etc.”

• Now there is all of the other wording which makes

up the remaining components or “elements” of the

crime that must exist.

○ The words “and” or “or” are critical to watch

for.

▪ When “and” is used, it connects one

element with another that follows it

so that both must exist to satisfy the

definition of the crime.

▪ When “or” is used, it separates one

element from the next one(s) so that

one or the other element(s) will

satisfy the definition.

Page 41: CRIJ 1301 Workbook.pd

Questions Notes/Key Terms

� Example of use of “and” as a

connector (from Texas Penal

Code Chapter 31 on Theft):

“...promising performance

that is likely to affect

the judgment of another

in the transaction and

that the actor does not

intend to perform or

knows will not be

performed...”

� Example (from Texas Penal

Code Section 21 on Assaultive

Offenses):

“...intentionally,

knowingly, or recklessly

causes bodily injury to

another”

� Read this as: “...

intentionally or

knowingly or recklessly

causes bodily injury to

another...”

3. In this exercise you will be given several excerpts of crimes

from the Texas Penal Code as well as the General Laws of

Massachusetts. Using what you now know about

recognizing elements of crimes, your job is to take each law

and (1) identify the individual elements of the crime that

must exist as well as (2) identify the connecting word or

punctuation or the separating word or punctuation that

either ties or separates one element from the one(s) that

follow.

Page 42: CRIJ 1301 Workbook.pd

Questions Notes/Key Terms

• Suggestion: an array of colored pencils is handy to

accomplish this task. Use one color for each

separate and distinct element that you identify.

Where elements that are connected by the “and”

exist, use the same color for the entire connected

element. Use a single bright and distinct color to

pick out the essential “and’s” and “or’s” such as

bright red so that they will stand out when the

entire law is read.

○ It may also be helpful to use a bulleted list

for each distinct element so that it can act as

a checklist when it comes time to apply the

law.

Peelian Principles

These nine conceptual ideas, first developed

by Sir Robert Peel, summarize his concept of proper

policing. They were commonly known as policing by

consent principles. They were first given to all new

police officers of the Metropolitan, London Police

Department in 1829 as an ideal to perform to and a

guide to their service. These tenets live on today in

modern policing in democratic societies all over the

world.

1. The basic mission for which the police exist is to prevent crime and disorder.

2. The ability of the police to perform their duties is dependent upon public approval of police

actions.

3. Police must secure the willing co-operation of the public in voluntary observance of the law to

be able to secure and maintain the respect of the public.

4. The degree of co-operation of the public that can be secured diminishes proportionately to the

necessity of the use of physical force.

5. Police seek and preserve public favour not by catering to public opinion but by constantly

demonstrating absolute impartial service to the law.

6. Police use physical force to the extent necessary to secure observance of the law or to restore

order only when the exercise of persuasion, advice and warning is found to be insufficient.

7. Police, at all times, should maintain a relationship with the public that gives reality to the

historic tradition that the police are the public and the public are the police; the police being

only members of the public who are paid to give full-time attention to duties which are

incumbent on every citizen in the interests of community welfare and existence.

8. Police should always direct their action strictly towards their functions and never appear to

usurp the powers of the judiciary.

9. The test of police efficiency is the absence of crime and disorder, not the visible evidence of

police action in dealing with it.

equal attention to the chapter in its

entirety to get the full context of

information.

The notes are in our standard

Cornell Notes format. You should apply

all of the concepts of Cornell Note-taking

by not just completing the focal

information gleaned, but also be sure to

write questions that you have and

anticipate potential test questions in the

left margins as well as writing a concise

summary in your own words about the

chapter at the end of your notes.
